Arbitrability In Recent Federal Civil Rights Legislation: The Need For Amendment, Douglas E. Abrams Jan 1994

Arbitrability In Recent Federal Civil Rights Legislation: The Need For Amendment, Douglas E. Abrams

Faculty Publications

This Article discusses the shortcomings inherent in the consideration and enactment of the arbitrability provisions of the ADA and the 1991 Civil Rights Act. As a threshold matter, Part II demonstrates that the latter Act's textual encouragement of arbitration indicates that Congress misapprehended the effect of Gilmer, which the Supreme Court had decided barely six months before the Act's passage. Specifically, this Part will argue that after Gilmer, textual encouragement of arbitration has little or no greater legal significance than textual silence would have. In the few decades before the decision, textual encouragement would have had significant impact because particular …

An Economic Analysis Of The Potential For Coercion In Consent Solicitations For Bonds, Royce De R. Barondes Jan 1994

An Economic Analysis Of The Potential For Coercion In Consent Solicitations For Bonds, Royce De R. Barondes

Faculty Publications

This Article examines why issuers frequently cannot present bondholders with an offer that draws on collective action problems to force the acceptance of the offer by the bondholders. The analysis is restricted to publicly offered bonds. For a number of reasons, privately placed debt presents fewer opportunities for coercion. A prior business relationship among various purchasers, which facilitates cooperation, may be more likely with respect to privately placed debt. Privately placed debt often has more significant protection for the bondholders than public debt with the same level of seniority

Small Numbers, Black Men, Precipitous Responses, Big Problems, Michael A. Middleton Jan 1994

Small Numbers, Black Men, Precipitous Responses, Big Problems, Michael A. Middleton

Faculty Publications

Professor Culp has aptly warned us that in our discussion of employment discrimination we should not lose sight of the need to address the spectrum of policies affecting the status of African-Americans. Without serious efforts in all aspects of American life (e.g., housing, education, health care, political and economic empowerment) our chances of significantly improving the future for African-American men are slim.

Maintaining Order In The Post-Strike Workplace: Employee Expression And The Scope Of Section 7, Lyrissa Lidsky Jan 1994

Maintaining Order In The Post-Strike Workplace: Employee Expression And The Scope Of Section 7, Lyrissa Lidsky

Faculty Publications

In the aftermath of a typical strike, management often seeks to restore order to the workplace by imposing restrictions on employee expression. Although in principle employee expression is protected by section 7 of the National Labor Relations Act, courts, relying on outdated notions of workplace organization, often accept ad hoc management justifications for restrictions on employee expression. The author argues that after a strike, it is crucial for employees to be able to express their grievances or vent their frustrations at exactly the same time that employers feel it necessary to restrict expression as a way of re-imposing order in …

Energy Trade And The National Security Exception To The Gatt, Donald N. Zillman Jan 1994

Energy Trade And The National Security Exception To The Gatt, Donald N. Zillman

Faculty Publications

Three topics combine in this paper: international trade, national security, and energy. The specific focus of the paper is the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and the "essential security interests" exception contained in Article XXI. The provisions of the GATT set out the structure of a system to encourage international trade by reducing tariffs and other trade barriers. More broadly, many aspects of international trade in energy have developed outside the structure of GATT or with the implied assumption that Article XXI or another GATT exception would take them out of normal GATT arrangements. National security matters have …

Urban Revitalization And Community Finance: An Introduction, Peter R. Pitegoff Jan 1994

Urban Revitalization And Community Finance: An Introduction, Peter R. Pitegoff

Faculty Publications

"In his 1933 poem Burn the Cities, Nathanael West, the iconoclastic American novelist and urban radical, portrays the city as a focal point of discontent and of anguish for the world's predicament.2 From Jerusalem to Paris and finally to London, the poem winds through distressing urban imagery with scant opportunity for escape. The implicit modicum of hope is an overthrow of the present order. From older cities abroad, West imports an apocalyptic vision of cities at home."

Determination Of Radiative Lifetimes Of Excited States In Neutral Gold Using Time-Resolved Vacuum-Ultraviolet Laser Spectroscopy, M. B. Gaarde, R. Zerne, Luo Caiyan, Jiang Zhankui, J. Larsson, S. Svanberg Jan 1994

Determination Of Radiative Lifetimes Of Excited States In Neutral Gold Using Time-Resolved Vacuum-Ultraviolet Laser Spectroscopy, M. B. Gaarde, R. Zerne, Luo Caiyan, Jiang Zhankui, J. Larsson, S. Svanberg

Faculty Publications

Natural radiative lifetimes of the states in the highly perturbed 5d10np 2P sequence in neutral gold, Au i, for n=69, as well as of four of the perturbing 5d96s6p 2P states, have been measured. This was done by direct excitation from the ground state with short-pulse vacuum-ultraviolet laser light and time-resolved detection of the laser-induced fluorescence. We found the lifetimes to be (6p 2P1/2)=6.2(2) ns, (6p 2P3/2)=4.7(2) ns, (7p 2P1/2)=6.4(7) ns, (7p 2P3/2)=5.3(7) ns, (8p 2P1/2)=63(3) ns, (8p 2P3/2)=24(2) ns, (9p 2P1/2)=28(2) ns, and (9p 2P3/2)=75(4) ns. For the perturbing states (two states of each term have been observed) we …

Chromosome And Sperm Size Of Holsteins With And Without Bovine Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency, H. C. Steinholt, J. E. Chandler, R. A. Baron, R. W. Adkinson Jan 1994

Chromosome And Sperm Size Of Holsteins With And Without Bovine Leukocyte Adhesion Deficiency, H. C. Steinholt, J. E. Chandler, R. A. Baron, R. W. Adkinson

Faculty Publications

The objective was to evaluate bull differences in chromosomal and spermatozoal areas related to the occurrence of the bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome. Lymphocyte chromosomes from 30 Holstein bulls and 2 Holstein heifers were measured using image analysis and computer-enhanced video-microscopy. Spermatozoal head areas from 29 of the 30 bulls were measured. Autosomal rank was based on decreasing area. Average total autosomal areas were not the same across bulls. One group of bulls had significantly smaller average chromosomal areas than the others; this group carried bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency syndrome. Area measures of spermatozoal heads showed that bulls with bovine …

Nanovid Microscopy For Assessing Sperm Membrane Changes Induced By In Vitro Capacitating And Acrosomal Reacting Procedures, Suzanne D. Degelos, Michael P. Wilson, John E. Chandler Jan 1994

Nanovid Microscopy For Assessing Sperm Membrane Changes Induced By In Vitro Capacitating And Acrosomal Reacting Procedures, Suzanne D. Degelos, Michael P. Wilson, John E. Chandler

Faculty Publications

ABSTRACT: This study was to verify the usefulness of Nanovid microscopy techniques for evaluating induced modifications in bovine spermatozoal membranes. Frozen thawed bovine sperm were labeled with 20‐nm colloidal gold particles bound to concanavalin A (ConA) or heparin ligands. Sperm membrane changes were induced in vitro by capacitating and acrosome‐reacting procedures. Capacitatton was induced by incubation with 10 μg/ml of heparin for 4 hours at 37°C, 5% CO2, and high humidity. Membrane changes associated with the acrosome reaction were induced by addition of lysophosphatidyicholine (100 μg/ml) and incubation for 15 minutes at 37°C, 5% CO2, and high humidity. Gray intensity …

The Significance Of Ngugi's Recent Writing: Or Why Ngugi Wa Thiong'o May Not Want The Nobel Prize (And Why He Should Get It), Patrick G. Scott Jan 1994

The Significance Of Ngugi's Recent Writing: Or Why Ngugi Wa Thiong'o May Not Want The Nobel Prize (And Why He Should Get It), Patrick G. Scott

Faculty Publications

Discusses the development from the 1960s to the 1980s of writings by the Kenyan author and activist Ngugi wa Thiong'o, examines some of the difficulty Us- and European-based critics have found with Nugi's work from the 1980s, and argues that courses in African literature need to move beyond the established canon of the immediate post-Independence period to reflect more recent developments. Works discussed include Ngugi's novels Devil on the Cross and Matigari. Originally presented at the Southeast Regional Symposium for African Studies, Athens, Georgia, 1994

A Proposal That Congress Create A Commission On Federal Court Structure, Thomas E. Baker Jan 1994

A Proposal That Congress Create A Commission On Federal Court Structure, Thomas E. Baker

Faculty Publications

Predicting the shape and size of the federal judiciary in the future requires us to gaze into a rather clouded crystal ball; clouded, because the prediction of future changes in any institution is a hazardous business, and clouded even more in this case because political pressures as well as rational discourse will determine what the federal courts look like a generation hence.

Effects Of Dietary Boron In Rats Fed A Vitamin D-Deficient Diet, J. N. Dupre, M. J. Keenan, M. Hegsted, A. M. Brudevold Jan 1994

Effects Of Dietary Boron In Rats Fed A Vitamin D-Deficient Diet, J. N. Dupre, M. J. Keenan, M. Hegsted, A. M. Brudevold

Faculty Publications

Although boron has long been known to be a required nutrient for plants, it was not until recently that there was any suggestion of a nutritional requirement for animals and humans. Addition of boron to the diet of vitamin D-deficient chicks indicated that boron may play a role in animal nutrition. Studies with rats have demonstrated that supplemental dietary boron has most marked effects when the diet is deficient in known nutrients. We observed higher apparent-balance values of calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus for rats fed a vitamin D-deprived diet with dietary supplemental boron (2.72 ppm), than for rats fed the …

How Reasonable Is The Reasonable Man?: Police And Excessive Force, Geoffrey P. Alpert, William C. Smith Jan 1994

How Reasonable Is The Reasonable Man?: Police And Excessive Force, Geoffrey P. Alpert, William C. Smith

Faculty Publications

The authority of the police to use force represents one of the most misunderstood powers granted to representatives of government. Police officers are authorized to use both psychological and physical force to apprehend criminals and solve crimes. This Article focuses on issues of physical force. After a brief introduction and a review of current legal issues in the use of force, the Article discusses "reasonableness" and the unrealistic expectation which is placed on police to understand, interpret, and follow vague "reasonableness" guidelines. Until the expectations and limitations on the use of force are clarified, in behavioral terms, police officers will …

Limitation Of Legal Malpractice Actions: Defining Actual Injury And The Problem Of Simultaneous Litigation, Tyler T. Ochoa, Andrew Wilstrich Jan 1994

Limitation Of Legal Malpractice Actions: Defining Actual Injury And The Problem Of Simultaneous Litigation, Tyler T. Ochoa, Andrew Wilstrich

Faculty Publications

In this article, we will first review the development of the "actual injury" tolling provision in California, from its judicial adoption in 1971 to its legislative adoption in 1977. Second, we will explore the policies underlying the legal malpractice statute of limitation and the countervailing policies that may make delayed accrual or tolling desirable in situations involving simultaneous litigation. Third, we will examine case law applying the "actual injury" tolling provision to various fact situations and analyze potential legal solutions to the problem of defining "actual injury," including the doctrine of equitable tolling. Finally, we will demonstrate how the doctrine …
